November 1Z.-Ihe nrsC wnls-
pers OF dire news from San Reno was I'M
heard in Berlin till toward evening. On
the Bourse business was over. Some even
ing papers had congratulatory articles on
the improving prospects OF the Crown
Prince, when suddenly, semi.official reports
were permitted to transpire that yester-
day evenings reports were false news.
These reports caused great CONSERVATION.
Early announcements were vaguely put
to the effect that the ma]ady had been
found to be of a cancerous nature and that
with regard to Foulke's treatment Of the
Crown Prince no trustworthy information
could be obtainable until a verbal report
was received from DR.. Schmidt, who went
to San Reno at the command OF the En-
peror. Nothing was said about the chance
of recovery or the condition OF the patient,
but the official admission was enough to
confirm the worst fears in the public mind
concerning the Crown Princes fate. Later
it became known that Professor Bergman,
who had lectured at the University. be-
came engaged in a consultation on the ex-
pediency of performing another operation,
and that Doctors Leloraeter and Tamase
were in favor OF immediate t~racheotomy.
while Doctors Schretzer and Mackenzie
were opposed to it. At last
DECISIVE EXAMINATION
was made yesterday morning which resulted
in the doctors unanimously declaring that
"a radical cure was impossible. The only
difference of opinion was as to how long
the Crown Princes life could be prolonged.
The Crown Prince heard part Of the discus.
sion between the doctors. He showed the
greatest elf.possession when told his re-
covery was uncertain n retired to meet
the Princess. He afterwards sent n long
dispatch to the Emperor and then recalling
the doctors he told them he placed
himself in their hands. DR.. Mackenzie
communicated the result ofthe examination
to Prince William. who seemed more al
fected by the dreadful news than his father.
DR.. Schmidt. who will personally read the
report OF the doctors to the Emperor to.
morrow, shares DR.. Mackenzie's opposition
to an immediate operation. His relations
with the Emperor will undoubtedly in
fluence family decision. Prince William re-
turns to..Berlin tomorrow. A confirmation
of the statement that the Crown Prince is
afflicted with cancer has revived interest in
the methods attempted for the ex%tirpation
OF the disease.
THE
is naturally much affected by. the serious
nature of the Crown Princes illness, but
rumors that he has q relapse threatening
death are untrue. He has appeared daily
at the palace window, at the time for re-
lieving guard, and bowed and saluted the
crowd watching for him. He looks hale
and works at his desk for some time before
dinner. News comes from Cobleptz that
the Empress ia worse. No bulletins about
her condition have been posted and it is
feared her illness is serious. The visit OF
the Car is invested with increased import
ance by the final decision that Bismarck and
NJ. De Giers should be present at the meet
ing OF the two Emperors. The North Ger
han Gazette announced that 7. ince Bis
marck will attend the conference at the
command of the Emperor. The Post as
serts that NJ. De G:ers will accompany the
Gar. Up to yesterday it was definitely
understood in official circles that Prince
Bismarck would not lie present. The re.
versal of tae arrangement is in accordance
with developments in the condition OF the
Crown Prince, whose death would mate
rally affect the whole European situation.
Thursday is now mentioned as the day OF

will be the least ceremonious possible.
Whatever may result from the De Gers
Bismarck conference official circles disbe-
lieve that it will have the slightest effect to
shake The central European alliance. On
the contrary, it is hoped that the Czar will
be persuaded that the coalition has too
strong a basis to be overturned or for any
power to be induced to abandon it. The
Fremdenblatt in a semi-ofticial article sug- |
gests that the Gar will carry away q per- |
sonal conviction Of how wrongly the Rus.
sian National party judges the aims OF
Germany and will certainly learn that
the alliance can never be weakened
nor loosened and that it may be extended

and embracing in the league of peace Russia |
also. The Reichsbank's refusal to make
further advances on Russian securities ap-
pears less hostile to Russia now tina there
is q report that the refusal will be extended
to all foreign bonds. The Reichshank is
thus following tine example of the Bank of
England and Bank of France. The Reichs.
bank has never advanced on Russian
securities more than about one-third of
their market value. On many Russian
railrt.ad bonds it would not lend money on
any terms.
